Printer prints misaligned

When I try to print a photo, using Photoshop, the image appears to be centered, but when I actually try to print it, the picture comes out misaligned. It is off-center in the left-right axis, so that part of the vertical border is too wide and the other vertical border is chopped off.
It may be a coincidence, but this appeared to happen just after a friend of mine became impatient, while waiting for a picture that was jammed in the printer, and she reached over and just yanked it out. I'm thinking that she somehow damaged the alignment of the printer, when doing this, but maybe it's just a seeming coincidence. If this is actually what happened, is there anything that I can do to correct it?
Thank you.

It is unlikely the removal of the jammed picture caused any alignment problem. The head is monitored VERY closely as to where is is exactly in the linear scale. This is done by an encoder strip near the drive belt for the printer head. If it is intact and clean the the printer will know where the head is at all times. If the encoder is damaged you usually find the print head goes flying off to the right and tries to break out of hte right side of the machine!
Are you sure you have the correct paper size set and that the paper is the size it is supposed to be. Make sure you use the paper support and the guide is pushed up.
You could also try seeing if a new driver is available from www.epson.com

This Problem is based on the Color Management so , The Perfect Solution for this problem is open the Photo or image etc in Adobe PhotoShop then goto Enhance->Adjust Color->Remove Color Cast , after removing the color cast , create a new layer for adjusting brightness , contrast & etc , then finally goto Image Size and change the DPI from 72 to 300 then save the image as JPEG or PNG etc , after saving the image close the Photoshop and open the image using Windows Photo Viewer and take the printout which will come as it is in the System

Had the same problem. The colours were mis aligned, or out of register. Tried everything, but nothing worked. Was going to toss it out, then tried changing the paper size in the print setup window of Photoshop to A4. Just make sure whatever Photo program you are printing from to choose A4 as the paper size. Printer worked fine after I did this.

Not an uncommon problem. Monitors are normally adjusted to what the viewer considers the ideal FOR THEIR viewing which has not relation to what the image is actuall like-hence the mismatch in what you see and what the print looks like.

i think you have a corrupted driver- you have to uninstall driver first

1. Double click on the MAC HARD DRIVE.2. Double click on the LIBRARY folder.3. Double click on the PRINTERS folder.4. Drag the EPSON folder to the trash can.

Go to print and fax and delete the printer name as well

Restart the Mac. (You do not need to empty the trash.) If you have not done so already, please follow the steps below to download the latest driver for your printer in OSX:

1. Go to the following website: http://support.epson.com2. Under the PRINTERS heading select INK JETS and then the Stylus Photo R2400.3. Under the DRIVERS & DOWNLOADS section select MACINTOSH.4. Select and download the following file for your operating system

It sounds like the resolution on the monitor may be set incorrectly in Photoshop. Try a different monitor setting. Twelve megapixels may result in your monitor "seeing" so many pixels it tries to ignore the excess ones, resulting in an image that looks poor on your monitor. If you order one print, that may give you an idea of the true printed quality without spending a lot of money on a bunch of bad prints. The F50 is truly an excellent camera and gives super images, from my experience.

The paper you print on is not relevant.
What happens is the green tint is the actual printer delivering all the colours to give a 'composite' black.
On shiny photo paper this is emphasized where as on plain paper the colour is absorbed and shows as intended.
So what can you do?
Move away from black and go for a tint such as sepia.
